President Jonathan Awards N2.4
Billion “Anti Oil Pipeline
Vandalism” Contract to OPC.
Posted by Editor
It appears President Goodluck
Jonathan has finally given up hope on
the ability of Nigeria’s security
agencies to police oil pipeline
installations across the country as he
has just awarded a 2.4 Billion naira
monthly contract to the Dr Frederick
Fasehun faction of the Oodua
People’s Congress, OPC to “police and
protect oil pipelines in South West
Nigeria against vandalism”.
President Jonathan had earlier last
year awarded similar contracts
running into billions of naira to
repentant oil militants in the Niger
Delta to protect oil pipelines in the
South-South region.
Reacting to the contract award, Head
of Afenifere Renewal Group. Hon Wale
Osun described the contract as “a gift
by Jonathan to Fasehun and others so
as to break the rank of the Yorubas in
2015″.
Wale Osun condemned the resort to
bribing militant groups rather than
empowering security agencies
established by law to man and police
oil pipelines in the country.
With this development, we wait to see
if President Jonathan will award
similar contract to MASSOB to protect
oil pipeline in the South-East Region
and whether the president will extend
similar gesture to the Boko Haram
sect, whicvh he is now considering
amnesty for.
